Objective:To investigate the correlation between endothelial dysfunction and cardiomyocyte apoptosis during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion.Methods:A total of 63 male rats were selected to establish the rat model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion by the ligation of the left anterior descending(LAD)coronary artery to simulate myocardial ischemia.Rats were divided into the control group and group Ⅰb, group Ⅰa, group Ⅱb, group Ⅱa, group Ⅲb and group Ⅲa.Control rats were treated only with LAD threading without ligation.In observation group, at 30, 90, 120 min after LAD ligation(marked as Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ group respectively), loosen the ligation to simulate ischemia-reperfusion.In the observation group, captopril sublingual injection of 0.25 mg/kg before ligation were marked as group b, and as group a with no captopril injection.The circulating endothelial cells(CEC), endothelin(ET), nitric oxide(NO)and the apoptosis rate of cardiomyocytes in each group were measured.Results:The CEC and ET levels showed a continuous upward trend, and a NO level showed a continuous downward trend from group Ⅰa to Ⅱa to Ⅲa as compared with the control group( P<0.05). After using preventive intervention of captopril, the CEC and ET levels were lower and NO levels were higher in group Ⅱb and Ⅲb than in group Ⅱa and Ⅲa, respectively( P<0.05). The apoptotic rate of cardiomyocytes was higher in group Ⅰa than in the control group, and the apoptotic rate from high to low were from group Ⅲa[(235.71±40.25)%]to group Ⅱa[(197.28±43.56)%]to group Ⅰa[(138.55±32.87)%]and to the control group[(5.81±2.02)%]( P<0.05). The apoptotic rate of cardiomyocytes was lower in group Ⅱb[(125.67±26.51)%]and Ⅲb[(124.91±33.28)%]than in group Ⅱa and Ⅲa, respectively( P<0.05). Conclusions:The ischemia-reperfusion can cause endothelial dysfunction and the apoptosis of cardiomyocytes, and there is a close relationship between the degree of this lesions and the duration of ischemia-reperfusion.While, the appropriate application of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor can inhibit the damage of cardiomyocytes to a some extent.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of keeping the consistency of bladder filing by a Bladderscan ( BS ) device during radiotherapy for rectal cancer. Methods The bladder volume was measured using a BS device and recorded. To verify the reliability of the BS measurement, the urinary output was determined by a measuring glass after complete urinary discharge. The bladder volume of 42 patients determined by the planning computed tomography ( CT) scans was used as the standard urinary volume. The bladder volume was measured using the BS device before radiotherapy every day. The chief complaint urinary volume was determined as the bladder volume when a patient felt a strong urge to urinate. The controlled urinary volume was determined as the urinary output intervened by the BS device to reach the standard urinary volume. Comparison was made by t test and data was assessed by Pearson correlation analysis. Results There was no significant difference in obtained urinary volume between the BS device and the planning CT scan ( P=0?84) . The urinary volume measured by the measuring glass was correlated with that measured by the BS device ( P=0?00 ) . The ability to hold urine in all patients was gradually weakened during treatment. The controlled urinary volume had a significantly smaller decrease after 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 weeks of treatment than the chief complaint urinary volume ( 5% vs. 21%;6% vs. 20%;6% vs. 20%, 4% vs. 21%;11% vs. 26%;all P=0?00) . Conclusions Patients have a gradually decreased urinary volume during treatment. The intervention by the BS device gives a bladder volume close to that in the planning system, which results in a consistent bladder filling.

Fluorescent carbon quantum dots ( CQDs) were synthesized by one-step hydrothermal treatment of apple juice. Experiments showed that Hg2+could quench the fluorescence of the CQDs with specificity. Based on this phenomenon, a selective and sensitive sensor was constructed for Hg2+ detection. In a NaH2 PO4-Na2HPO4 buffer solution (pH 7. 0), their fluorescence intensity showed good linear relationship with the concentrations of Hg2+ from 5 to 100 nmol/L and 1 to 50 μmol/L, respectively, with the detection limit of 2. 3 nmol/L (S/N=3). Its practical application was further demonstrated by the detection of Hg2+ in real water samples.

Objective To discuss the emergency management and treatment measures of critically severe craniocerebral trauma.Methods A retrospective study was conducted on the emergency management in 82 patients with critically severe craniocerebral trauma admitted to our hospital from September 2005 to May 2011.Results According to the Glasgow Outcome scale ( GOS),there were 10 patients with good recovery (12%),17 with moderate disability (21%),12 with severe disability (20%),four in vegetable status (2%) and 39 deaths (48%).Conclusion The success rate in the treatment of critically severe craniocerebral injury can be enhanced through rapid and effective pre-hospital care,prompt surgical intervention,standardized subsequent therapy,adherence to damage control surgery concept,and emphasis on prevention and cure of secondary brain injury.

Objective To evaluate the sensitivity, repeatability and accuracy of microarray digital PCR system in detecting JAK2 V617F mutation, which was closely related to myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN).Methods All of the 31 MPN patients with JAK2 V617F mutation, including 18 cases of polycythemia vera(PVs),11 primary thrombocythemias (ETs) and 2 primary myelofibrosis (PMFs), were collected from Huashan Hospital, Fudan University during 2014 -2015, while 10 normal controls and 6 cases with abnormal increased hemoglobin were involved.Human erythroleukemia cell line ( HEL ) and colorectal cancer cell SW480 were used as the mutant and the wild type control, respectively.The sensitivity of microarray digital PCR were verified by detecting the gradient diluted mutation standard harboring 30%, 10%, 1%, 0.1%and 0.01%mutant allele burden, respectively .Repeatability was evaluated by detecting 1%and 10% mutated samples for 5 times, respectively.MGB probe real time PCR was selected as the reference method to verify the accuracy of the digital PCR.Results With digital PCR, the accurate quantitation of JAK2 V617F mutation was achieved down to 0.1%, which is approximate to 0.16 copies per microliter.The results obtained from the two kinds of technique showed a high correlation by linear regression analysis (R2 =0.998 3).The results of repeated samples showed CVs as 17.18% for 1%mutant allele burden and 7.50%for 10%.Among all cases, the 31 patients known mutated were detected as positive and 10 controls as negative by both digital PCR and Real time PCR.In another 6 cases, 2 were found JAK2 V617F mutation of low allele burdens of 0.37% and 0.18% by digital PCR but detected as negative by real time PCR.Conclusions Microarray digital PCR offers a higher sensitivity and better repeatability than real time PCR which could help detect rare JAK2 V617F mutations in MPNs accurately.

Objective To evaluate the effect of "health education mobile classroom " in the outpatient department of children's hospital, and to analyze the needs of the outpatient and family members on health education. Methods Through the retrospective analysis of the information of the outpatient and emergency patients in the children's specialist hospital to determine the content, the venue and the time period of the "health education mobile classroom". Selection and training the health educator to implement the health education. At the same time, push the training content through the mobile APP to the patient's family, to expand the education audience. To compare and analyze the patient satisfaction of the hospital and the satisfaction with the dimensions of the project. In the evaluation of the effect of health education and the influencing factors, the relationship between income, occupation and children is positively related, and age is negatively related to it. Results After the implement of this project, the satisfaction of the patient had increased for 3.65%(P=0.001). Overall assessment of the audience was very satisfied with (3.94 ± 0.25) points. In each dimension analysis, the satisfaction of the "training method"was the highest, at (3.94 ± 0.26) points. Satisfied with the attitude of the trainers and comprehensive ability were more than 3.80 points. Conclusions The "health education mobile classroom" can improve patient satisfaction in the outpatient department and emergency of children's specialist hospital. Audience has a certain degree of acceptance and satisfaction with this health education mode.
